Why Study History?
Parents …
Did you hate history in school? Many did–my husband & myself included! Lists of summarized facts & dates endlessly strung together in textbooks did little to draw us into the wonder of the works of God among men from Creation forward.
But, as homeschoolers, we and our children have had the exciting opportunity of exploring the past together as a family and discovering how valuable this subject really is. As we have shared this adventure over the years, to our amazement we have learned that:
- History is not dead, but alive!
- History is not dull, but active and intriguing!
- History is not divorced from real life, but imminently pertinent to how we live our daily lives!

Learn More About History & Its Importance …
That’s one goal of this year’s annual Christian Heritage Conference—to make history come alive! Learn about some of the most influential founding fathers, be inspired by their testimonies of perseverance and faithfulness to God and to their nation, and apply the examples of their lives to your own. For example:
- HEAR … Doug Phillips on
“Washington & Henry: Men of God Who Persevered”
“Providence & Perseverance: God’s Message from History to Our Children”
- SEE … Patrick Henry & the Men of the 2nd Virginia Convention
As they debate the key issues facing them at their time in history …
And as they arrive at conclusions that affected them immediately AND that continue to impact us today!
